washing your yaris
question for especially polar white yaris owners:
how often do you wash your white yaris particularly the bottom of it near the door sills? I find there's a piece of white metal that's parallel to the side of the car just under the door sills. that part gets all yellowish and greyish. do you have to wash that part often?

To be honest, it's hard to wash a white car in general. I wash my white yaris whenever I know it's not going to rain for 4 days or so, so pretty much wash it every week or every other week (if no rain). yeah, I understand that metal you talked about, I wash it and always use a cloth to wipe the whole car include the side metal. Not sure if that specific part have to be wash often or not. Compare to my friends, I always wash my car more often then them or most people anyways.
